Yes they are! also the anglerfish is the #1 pick out of everyone I have talked to about the kickstarter.

Well I am at 13 days left to go and I am 49% of the way to my goal and I am at a loss for what else to do to draw an audience. I have officially contacted all of my friends personally on fb and many of them are sharing my kickstarter like crazy. I have also passed out fliers at craft fairs and posted them at different places around the city. I also have a few friends that say they are going to pledge, but haven't yet. So I am going to contact them and remind them about the kickstarter when it gets a little closer to the end. I would have never thought that getting to $360 would be so hard.

Keep fleshing out your project page. This is the image that you should put just below your project line of, "Cute illustrations made into charms for keychains, necklaces, and buttons."



That's a great photo. It projects exactly the right image. You are part of your brand. You're the face for it. You personify it. If people don't identify with your project, then you want them to identify with you. Put all sorts of images up of you with your crafts, even if it is older crafts. Show people what you do. Don't be hesitant to showcase yourself, along with your project. You're young, attractive, and as this image shows, your world is full of color. You have a great smile in that photo. That's positive energy.

Your goal is so low, that you could hit it in a single day. Your Kicktraq data reveals 184 shares. You need to get that number up at least another hundred higher. Your project currently has only 14 backers. That's crazy! You're just not getting the word out sufficiently.

Look at the Daily Data tab for your project on Kicktraq. You only need 14 dollars per day, on average, for the days that remain to reach your goal.

Thank you Charles! I went and added that picture into the project it really does help portray the fact that I am a crafter. Your advice is always so helpful and I will try to find more people to share it with however I can. 11 days left I am going to have to push hard and make sure this baby happens.

You need a pledge level between $1 and $9.

Give them reasons to back you. Part of that is giving them options - affordable options. You want this to appeal to everyone. Not everyone can afford 3 of these things.

Plus, you don't want them to be one time buyers, nor one time backers.

You have eleven days to make both your project page and your campaign appealing. Doing nothing and silence are not the right choices. Mobilize yourself. Become fervent about your project. That's how you will move it forward, with such a relatively small amount of time remaining.

You are not after the funding moon, here. But, you do need movement.

You added the photo, which I think is a real winner. So, I went ahead and shared your project on Facebook, and tooted your horn a bit, along with it. I don't maintain a big Facebook following, though, so it may not gain you any traction. It probably won't hurt any, though.

Ok so I added a $5 pledge option and I also created a facebook event page so hopefully friends will invite people that I can not normally reach. Hopefully that will pull in a new audience .

Here is the link I am going to create a new forum about it too. https://www.facebook.com/events/1463697467234612/?ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming

Holly,

On August 21st, 2014, your Kickstarter experienced a spike on pledges. It was a hundred dollar pledge from one backer, I suspect. What do you think was the key to gaining that particular pledge? Personal connection?

I'm going by the Kicktraq data for your project:

I changed my pledge from $3 to that new $5 level, today.

Add this image in your project page, as well:



You know, you could do updates, just to show people other crafts that you have done, over time. You will simply be showcasing your talent, and you can always add a few words about your current project, in the process.
